The writer recalls something that his grandfather had told him when he was a boy. It involved an out-of-body experience and the possibility that the grandfather had encountered aliens.
The following account was forwarded to me:
"My grandfather had a tough life. He grew up with his many siblings being passed around through homes and orphanages. He would usually tell me a lot of funny stories because I was still young before he passed. But one story was different and I didn’t remember it until just now. I have no proof other than my word.
One night, when he was ten or so, he’d gone to bed at one of the orphanages he once stayed at. It was really late at night and he was having a hard time sleeping. But when he did fall asleep he had weird dreams where he made it sound like he was having an out-of-body experience. He was seeing himself sleeping in his bed that night like he was in the body of another person entirely. He described it like he was standing over himself, so I have to assume he was much taller. Then it all ends because he wakes up and opens his eyes. He said standing over him surrounding his bed (only the back end was touching the wall) were five or so really tall dark people. Dark as in shadowy. He couldn’t see their faces at all. He said he didn’t feel scared, and that he closed his eyes again. Then he said he fell asleep again and woke up in the morning.
That was how he ended the story. No payoff. He never told the story to me again and he’s been dead for a long time so there’s no way to find out anything else. Based on vague memories of how he ended up telling me the story, I believe he was trying to say they were aliens. As a kid, I remember saying “That’s awful” at the end because I think at the time I thought he was implying they had hurt him badly. But looking back I don’t think he meant it as a scary story. He was very quiet after.
My step-grandfather was great. He was a father figure for me and I think I just wanted to share his story to honor him. I miss him a lot, and I do want to take his word for it here. I don’t remember him as a liar, especially when communicating with me." A

Would you like to design artwork for Phantoms & Monsters, Phantoms & Monsters Radio, or Phantoms & Monsters Fortean Research?
If your art is approved by me I will promote it with your name and link. It must be original, print-ready, and sized for clothing & merchandise. You can choose your favorite cryptid or paranormal subject to include in your artwork. The design does not need to include the Phantoms & Monster trademark or name. I will select up to 5 different designs, and each will be fully promoted on the blog, the Phantoms & Monsters online shop, YouTube, social media, etc. I will include your name, website, contact, or whatever means that you wish.
YOUR SUPPORT IS APPRECIATED! THANKS

All great legends are based on a real event. Subsequent events simply add to the legend. This seems to be the case for the Lizard Man of the Scape Ore Swamp, a phenomenon that crescendoed into a national story. It remains the namesake for the small town of Bishopville, South Carolina. I will talk about that incident during the presentation.
But is the lizard man or reptoid phenomenon a reality? Is it a figment of someone's imagination... or is it a flesh & blood, corporeal being?
I have received hundreds of accounts from experiencers over several decades. Every account is different, some more terrifying than others. I'll let you decide whether these are extraterrestrial or interdimensional humanoids... or a species of cryptid that occasionally makes itself known to unsuspecting witnesses.
So, listen to the reports, and form your conclusions about what these Lizard beings are. If you have questions, feel free to post them in the live chat. I will do my best to answer everyone.
